No way Bourdon should be given a shot now. But it is great to see he can resume his career. Lets hope he stays healthy and hopefully he can find a long term job.

Its been a while, but I remember him being solid, it felt like the Flyers were really hoping on him being a #5/6 when he started until he got banged up which kind of made them switch gears a bit. If he stays healthy in ADK and plays well, I wouldn't be surprised to see them try to squeeze him in next year.

I think its been stated that the 1 way/2 way doesn't have an effect on waivers, just how much they get paid.

2 way affects waivers, if his 2 way deal is above 105k he has to pass through. If under, I don't think they have to. This is also after the allotted waiver-exempt time has passed. I don't know the exact amount, but there is a threshhold for games played or years since first contract was signed that a player is waiver exempt.

"The 24-year-old player, who cleared waivers back in Sept. (which is why he has not been on the long-term injured reserve list), is expected to be loaned the Phantoms this week. This is very encouraging news for the likable and hard-working defenseman, who previously experienced a series of setbacks while recovering from concussions. "

EDIT: It does seem suspicious. Couldn't the Flyers just waive Pronger and avoid LTIR by the same logic?

Another setback for hard-luck Bourdon
Defenseman Marc-Andre Bourdon has concussion issues from banging his head into the glass during a recent game and is out of the Phantoms’ lineup indefinitely, Adirondack coach Terry Murray confirmed after his team’s morning skate Saturday in Voorhees.

Earlier this season, Bourdon spent two months at the University of Michigan, where he received treatment from concussion specialists and also skated on the college rink. The Flyers sent him to the Phantoms last month, and it took him a few games to get back into form, Murray said, adding that Bourdon was making major strides.
